在这部Attack the sun纪录片片中,Can you give in to the sun without losing yourself? Can you long for it without getting burnt? We all know what happened to Icarus. Born and raised in Los Angeles, 25-year-old Steven Moran, the main character around which the whole film revolves, casts a different light on the question. His own sun is the haunting star of that global city, its hedonistic and heliophilous lifestyle, and their dazzling e ect. He basks in the post-adolescent fantasies – sex, cars, skateboards, beaches… – of that shining geography, which has obviously flooded so many films. How can one approach this matter anew, and squeeze every last drop if it? In an amazing feat, Gwendal Sartre (Song Song, FID 2012) and Fabien Zocco make the most of the local technological imagery, using an artificial intelligence program created by Fabien Zocco for the occasion to process information collected on the internet and on social media. The AI regurgitates the written voice-over of the character, and ends up infecting dialogues and situations imagined by Gwendal Sartre, as well as the very structure of the film. The result is a ventriloquial, rambling and contradictory film, constantly shaken up by the glossolalia of the character and by the unpredictable succession of sequences.
It shows the mirages of a deceitful city, trapped in its own mirror e ects, at once aloof and artificial, glittering with unattainable sparks. This frenzied and shattered narrative reflects what the character experiences – his constructions, his unfulfilled auto-eroticism, while he keeps filming himself, as if he wanted to step into the frame. It is a perfect match for the film, whose atmosphere is haunted by the delusive machine that is Los Angeles, always in Hollywood’s shadow, like the blinding reflection of a dazzling city. (N.F.)
Steven Moran, twenty five years old. He lives in Los Angeles, California. He spend all his nights and days on his own, filming himself, driving his car. Through the artificial eye of his smartphone, he tries to reach this obsessive Californian sun, and all those pretty girls he can't touch. He wants to slay the memories that clutters him, the ghosts from his past. He has to face all these confusing thoughts coming to his mind. His mind is obscure. And everything is just senseless. Or is it the contrary ? And Her, is she with him or with them ? And what does James think about it ?
